Both actually.
Black pepper is a traditional remedy for acute marijuana intoxication that has some science behind it now. Something binds something that alleviates the high. Chewing on a few peppercorns reduces the intoxication (and we get a lot of marijuana overdoes with edibles nowadays). Some therapists that I work with claim that even the odor of freshly ground pepper reduces the high. I've used it several times on patients with good results. I've also taken pepper out of my diet.
If nothing else, it's a good placebo. And it's kinda funny to watch stoners chew on peppercorns.
